No stitching here last night. Daddy planted fall peas this year since the summer ones didn't produce so well. He picked these for me yesterday and I shelled them last night.
My fingers are only slightly purple today, but my thumb sure is sore!
Have a great weekend!

I recall watching my grandmothers shelling peas in their apron laps. I remember the garden in summer, with fresh blackberries and strawberries. Gobbling up the fruit as I stood in the sun watching them hoe the red dirt that produced our food.

Ya know I have never shelled peas. I think that is so sad that I never have. I bet those will taste yummy. I am glad Gustav didn't terrorize you too much...and that you are safe!!!! cherry
Hi Tina,
I have never had the purple hull peas. My mom and I have always grown "cream peas". I didn't have any luck with mine this spring. I learned quickly to pick them slightly yellowish so they are easier to shell! I haven't planted a fall garden in years because it is too hectic at that time.
Blessings,
